Origami Woof Woof

It seems to be all about dogs or animals of late.  I have had an idea in my head for quite some time now and thought I would take some time to try and get it out of there.  It turned out okay but I feel there is still a little tweaking still to do.  The first pair I  made the pant from a red cotton voile which is nice and light for those fresher evenings here in queensland (our winter) and the origami dog applique I used a cream linen.  I probably wouldn't use the linen again because it frays very easily but for these pants I just reinforced it a little more.  And the second pair I made the pant in a stretch navy and used a good quality calico for the fish applqiue.  They seemed to turn out the best depending on what you like. Archie didn't seem to mind and was quite happy in both as he tinkered around the back yard.
